What are the different plan types offered?
We offer two main plan types: "Pay as you go" and "Prepaid."
Pay as you go: You pay for subscriptions as you use the product, without a fixed commitment.
Prepaid: You pay in advance for a set period of time, providing more control over spending.
Both options are designed to cater to different usage patterns and budget preferences.

Which payment gateways are supported for migration?
Shopify currently supports migration of customer data from the payment gateways listed below:
Stripe or Braintree will connect as a legacy subscription payment gateway for billing your existing contracts, while all new or updated contracts charge against Shopify Payments.
Authorize.net can be set up the same way if you wish to use Shopify Payments after the migration. Other payment gateways will remain the same after the migration.
Here is the documentation from Shopify for reference.
Where do I get my subscription data from?
Where do I get my customer data from?
This data is particularly required if you were using legacy checkout apps (like Recharge V1, Bold V1, etc.) or if you are migrating from another ecommerce enabler (like WooCommerce, Wix, Squarespace, etc.). The payment gateway typically provides options to export customer data, which can then be imported into Shopify for seamless migration.
